Free, fair and alive : the insurgent power of the commons

Bollier, David (author.). Helfrich, Silke, (author.).

Summary: "Free, Fair, and Alive is a penetrating cultural critique, table-pounding political treatise, and practical playbook for "commoning"--free, self-organizing systems ranging from alternative currencies to open-source everything. It presents a bold and compelling alternative to the dead-end, predatory market-state system."--Provided by publisher.
